………Know Before You Go!!!!!……….

Because all ships must anchor, Grand Cayman’s pier can become extremely hectic on peak ship days. Tenders carry cruise ship passengers to two different landing sites, directly across from the town center. All excursions leave from these areas. Recently, the government has made an effort to restrict the amount of tour buses available, placing a limit on the number of tours available onboard the ships. As we only accept advance reservations, we are able to offer several options in the port wit no limitations. Stingray City remains our most popular excursion and is considered by many the highlight of their cruise. The highlight tour provides a short but interesting insight into the island’s history, sights and culture.
